Why Colour Mill has become a reference
Colour Mill revolutionized pastry coloring in 2018 with its oil blend formula: a gel colorant based on edible oil that solves the historic gel vs. fat-soluble dilemma. One product works for buttercream, ganache, fondant, white chocolate, and royal icings. Ultra-concentration: 1 drop per 100g of mass. The brand is also known for its harmonious pastels (Lavender, Baby Pink, Sky Blue) which have become the signature of modern wedding cakes.
The Colour Mill palette
More than 50 colors in the catalog, grouped by families. Pastels: Baby Pink, Lavender, Sky Blue, Mint, Peach (the most used in cake design). Brights: Red, Cobalt, Raspberry, Lime, Sunshine. Natural: Beetroot, Avocado, Carrot. Metallics: Gold, Rose Gold (powders). Limited edition: seasonal collections (Halloween, Christmas, Valentine’s Day) renewed every year.
Practical use
Standard application: 1 to 2 drops per 100g of mass. Shake the bottle well before each use (the pigment may settle). For intense reds and black: dose 3-5 drops and let rest 30 minutes for intensification. The standard 20ml Colour Mill bottle lasts about 50 uses. A professional 100ml size is available for high-volume workshops.
